Not sure the seller quite has the hang of this

    I asked the seller why they thought anyone would pay £100 for £100 voucher and would they not be better selling it at a slightly lower price (being nice and trying to be helpful) and got the following reply

    lol It really is illogical. If I wanted £100 of wine, I would go and buy it from a choice of places. If I wanted majestic wine vouchers I would go buy them, If I wanted the hassle of waiting for vouchers to arrive I would buy these.

    stupid lady!

    ok, I couldn't hold out any longer, I've sent a link, only so she can see that she has to relist it with a more sensible starting price of course :A

    Laughter is the best medicine...oh, except for the brilliant wine bargain; only £100 for £100's worth.
    Oh dear, oh dear...and a £2.00 listing fee(could have set start price @£99.99 for a £1.50 fee).
    Hold on, that's the same sort of wonky mirror accountancy. Sortakinda.

    She won't last long on this site before an abusive post report, if that's indicative of attitude and nous generally.

    Because it was worth nothing unless anyone was desperate for those vouchers and couldn't get to the shops? :confused:

    I might start selling on eBay after all ;) Anyone want a Next voucher for £25? It's a snip at £25 .... ;)

    Listing fee will be 75p for that one: why not start price at £29.99 for the same fee and make(not)another £4.99?
    Doesn't the genius just flow at this hour?
